I am creating a custom AMI with Visual Studio C++ runtime 2012 installed. I installed everything. However, I read in the documentation that, an I quote:

After customizing a windows instance, you need to run the EC2Config service Sysprep. For information about EC2Config, go to Configuring a Windows Instance Using the EC2Config Service.

Can someone please explain to me what exactly I should do. I can't understand it from the documentation. Thanks.

Running the instance on Windows Server 2012 / IIS8

I had used Ec2Config on Windows AMI sometime back to have my custom AMI generate a new password every time an Instance is launched from it.

However, there are quite a few other things you can do with EC2Config on Windows AMI. Please refer the documentation of EC2Config for more details.
